Limits

This small six letter word holds more meanings then people may realize. There are all different kinds of limits, from mathametical limits to physical limits. There are even literary limits. In all these instances of limits there are minimums and maximums. In my opinion there should be no such thing as limits. If I wanted to lift 450 lbs right I couldn't because my body is not in the condition to deal with that amount of strain on my muscles since my physical limit is only 135. Limits simply with hold someone from doing something in both minimum limits and maximum limits. From a literary stand point there should never be a minimum word limit or maximum page limit because the writer should write as much as he or she wants. If a person writes 300 words for a 1000 word paper then they should not get penalized because that is what they felt was needed for there piece. Now if they do not hit other certain literary criteria for the paper in the 300 words then they can be penalized. I understand that limits are set as guidelines and rules to abide to yet could you imagine what the human race could accomplish without limits. We would have traveled all across the universe by now, built time machines, and even created teleportation devices. While these tasks may seem impossible now, just like rules limits are meant to be broken.
